Wheels to Work Employer Consultation

About this consultation

The purpose of this consultation is to 1) understand how transport barriers affect your recruitment and retention of employees and, 2) gather employer feedback on the possible schemes/directions we are considering for Wheels to Work outlined in the briefing sent to your email. You can access a copy of the briefing here.
We will use the responses to the survey to guide our next steps in developing a WTWT scheme, including using the evidence gathered to support a funding bid. We hope to then roll out a pilot scheme in collaboration with interested local employers. You can express an interest in acting as a pilot organisation at the end of the survey.
